Property owners have two houses in over an acre of land surrounded by open countryside. The larger house is a converted “resinier's” cottage with 3-4 bedrooms and a good sized swimming pool. The second house has 3 bedrooms and its own swimming pool. Both properties are situated in a small hamlet called St Helene de L'Etang about 5 km from Carcans. The houses are close to the largest freshwater lakes in France and the Surfing beaches of the Atlantic. Also close by are the wine regions of the Medoc.

Chez Resinier is an old “resinier's” cottage (the resiniers used to collect resin from the pine trees). The cottage was completely restored and modernised in 1993. The cottage itself has 3 double bedrooms. The large master bedroom has a super king size bed and ensuite shower room. A second bedroom contains twin beds and a third bedroom has two sets of adult sized bunk beds. There is also a separate bathroom. Attached to the house by a gazebo is an extension with an additional room with bunk beds and a sink; this room would be suitable for older children. There is a large salle de sejour and a fully equipped kitchen including a dishwasher, washing machine and several fridge/freezers. Facilities in the garden include a good sized salt water swimming pool and brick barbeque together with extensive patios around the house (well stocked with garden furniture) - ideal for long, lazy lunches and dinners.

Sleeps 10 persons (preferably 8 adults + 2 children), self catering.

The tiny hamlet of St Helene de l'Etang consists of nine houses including ours which is at the end of the road opposite a small farm which has camping facilities in the summer. Beyond our houses, the road becomes a sandy track leading to the largest freshwater lake in France (Lac Hourtin) which is accessible on foot (20 minutes) or by bike (10 minutes) but this area of the lake is a nature reserve and the main lake beaches for swimming etc are 10 minutes' drive away at Maubuisson. Very little traffic passes our house making it ideal for children. Wildlife abounds including frogs, toads, rabbits, deer, lizards and a wide range of birds.


Carcans (5 km) has the essential supermarket but also the traditional French shops and local market. The 'cave' is well stocked with Bordeaux wine and there is a very good baker, butcher and fishmonger.


Maubuisson is ten minutes' drive away and there you will find sandy beaches, cafes, restaurants, sailing, wind surfing and safe swimming. Ten minutes beyond Maubuisson is the Atlantic Ocean, with miles of unspoilt beaches and breakers for surfing and invigorating swimming. There is golf, cycling and horse riding within easy driving distance including wonderful cycle tracks from Maubuisson through pine forests to the Atlantic beaches.

St Helene de l'Etang is 12 km from the beach and 35 km from Bordeaux.
